Unfortunately Amir’s religious beliefs mean he still has to eat bugs (Picture: ITV/REX)

I’m A Celebrity bosses have been providing Amir Khan with halal-friendly food to ensure that he keeps in line with his faith.

The 30-year-old is of Muslim faith and therefore can only eat certain halal foods so producers of the show have made some exceptions to the jungle rules in order for Amir to actually eat.

Whenever camp mates are rewarded with food after those grueling bushtucker trials, Amir is given a halal option that is specially prepared by a separate team to ensure he is able to carry on practicing his faith.

The reports were confirmed Amir’s official Twitter account, after a fan asked about his dining options.

‘Amir is provided with a Halal option whenever the camp win food,’ someone with control over the Twitter account confirmed.

Unfortunately for Amir though, he’s still able to eat all those creepy crawlies and big ol’ bugs, as they don’t compromise his faith.
